** Description changed:

  Binary package hint: xorg
  
- On my Nvidia Geforce Go 6100, the text in the  Ctrl Alt Fx consoles
- flicker. By flicker, I mean that the text moves up and down a few pixels
- multiple times a second. This happens continually, but the exact
- subsecond spacing of the movement seems to be random.
+ On my Nvidia Geforce Go 6100, using the binary blob nvidia driver, the
+ text in the  Ctrl Alt F[123456] consoles flicker. By flicker, I mean
+ that the text moves up and down a few pixels multiple times a second.
+ This happens continually, but the exact subsecond spacing of the
+ movement seems to be random. This also happens on the startup splash
+ screen.
  
- I'm using the Nvidia Driver, but I think it also happens with the new
- open source driver. I will check and confirm this.
